Permits board of education to employ certain veterans in coaching positions in school district's interscholastic athletic program.

This bill allows New Jersey school boards to hire eligible veterans as coaches in school sports programs without requiring them to hold a teaching certificate or substitute credential. An "eligible veteran" is defined as a state resident honorably discharged after at least four years of military service. The bill directly affects veterans seeking coaching roles and school districts hiring for those positions, removing a current credential barrier. It does not change requirements for other school staff or student-athletes. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage.
